Mayo, Grizzlies, Look To Extend League-High ATS Winning Streak
The Memphis Grizzlies (22-55 SU, 35-41-1 ATS, 38-39 O/U) and Orlando Magic (57-20 SU, 48-27-1 ATS, 35-41 O/U) will both be trying to pick up an SU and ATS victory in the BetOnline Sportsbook when they square off at Amway Arena tonight at 7 PM ET.
The Grizzlies had their four-game SU winning streak snapped in its 96-93 loss to Portland on Tuesday night but managed to cover the spread for the fifth straight game as 7-point road underdogs.
Explosive rookie shooting guard O.J. Mayo scored a team-high 31 points for Memphis as the game played under the 191.5-point O/U total.
All-star forward Rashard Lewis recorded a solid double-double with 22 points and 12 rebounds in its 93-83 loss to Houston on Tuesday night. The Magic failed to cover the spread as 1-point road underdogs while the final score played under the 189.5-point O/U total.

Analysis: Believe it or not BetOnline NBA sports betting enthusiasts, the Memphis Grizzlies have covered the spread in six of the last eight meetings against Orlando, including their only meeting this season as 7.5-point home underdogs on Halloween Night.
While the Magic have gone a stellar 30-8 SU and 22-16 ATS at home this season, I like the Memphis Grizzlies to extend their league-high five-game ATS winning streak by covering the high point spread tonight.
With the Memphis Grizzlies scoring at least 107 points in four of their last five games, I lie this contest to go Over the set O/U total tonight despite the fact that the Under has played out in four of the last six meetings between these ballclubs.
